RM150 different than DCMoto, you do the math. In fact, this is my friend contact, mean I haven't meet him in person. Moreover, my house is just started renovation. So, have to wait at least 3 months from now then I can install the autogate system.

Which one I choose? DCMoto 1 year warranty but Casa Asia 2 years warranty. Plus silent motor. What do you think with RM150 different? About the Anti-Spy remote... I see the Casa Asia remote control is same like DCMoto but this didn't mentioned in Casa Asia website. So I can't confirm, may be people who install this can share info to us?

Thanks for ya reply.
Yup, i didnt see it in Casa website as well about any anti-spy remote but the rest looks the same as DCMOTO. But the 2 year warranty is value for money for me. Did ya friend say what does the warranty cover?

Didn't ask in details about warranty, but I think normally Auotgate system is covering the Motor System only with motherboard only. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Lighting will not be cover for any warranty unless stated. This is common. Also got human error it will not be cover. Like bang and push open the gate and broke the arms or gear box all this will not be cover.

Yup. Forget about Lightning Strike also.

But here warranty is covered even Lightning Strike.

GASS Autogate

Does anyone know on which company that does the gate and auto gate system apart from Unigate ?

Lightning strike usually prone to installations where there's a relay to light up a light at the side pillar. When lightning strikes it usually fries the main circuit board.

You can try Magtenic company. Last time I saw their advertisement in Chinese newspaper classified section. Stainless steel gate 12 feet with OAE autogate with installation less than 4k I think.

My current house gate & autogate also get from them but that time is in charge by my brother. Contact no. is 012-3451674. Hope this help.

mhhee, may i know where is ur grill & gate contractor from? my new hse at puchong. can u pm me ur contractor num?

i'm fresh with grills & gate knowledge, any sifu here can teach me more about?

Got a quote from Santronec Automation Supply for CASA-ASIA...RM2220!!! Said they make CASA themselves 's n based in Tropicana. Apparently the price is steep coz its 3 yrs warranty on motor n lifetime for lightning strike. Ashed why some others advert less, he said maybe warranty period in less than 3 yrs etc. What I like is that he will only come over to check the gate first to see if it was installed propoery then only confirm the autogate. said many gates are mainly the folding gate are not installed propoerly n can cause damage.
Anyone in the forum has engaged Santronic before? Pls share

why not include your house insurance to cover autogate for Lightning strike?

It is interesting to know of any supplier that is willing (and keep their promise) to cover their equipment against lightning strike.

CASA is definitely made in Penang. Not KL.
Whether they will honor 3 years warranty on lightning strike you have to make reference checks with their customers.
I think most installers now will offer 3 years warranty for a slight premium which would be still less than RM2,200. If your area is not prone to lightning strike (e.g. no on hilltop, no an isolate tall structure, not have prominent lights above pillars etc) the probability of a lightning strike is very remote. My parents place has been using autogates for the past 20 years and we've never had a single failure due to lightning strike

It depends on luck whether the lightning strike on your autogate or alarm. But honestly saying, I seldom heard people that their system strike by lightning... Even from some autogate & alarm system installer. But CCTV alots lar. Coz my company one always kena... Especially raining season

yup, its made in penang but the company is here in kl. He also mentioned that CASA n DCMOTO is same-same but different. Anyway, the 3 yrs warranty is only for motor n lightning strike is lifetime. But, every1 is rite, i also never heard of autogate damage by lightning.
On warranty, he mentioned that if the compnay carries spare parts and wld be able to repair on the spot but DCMOTO if damage the whole motor would be shipped to penang for repairs...which means ya hse wld not autogate for 1-3 weeks. DCMOTO users, is this true?

my neighbour install dc motor and i install casa.though the speed is same but casa is more steady looking
his price around 1500 and mine around 1900(casa 320)

Thanks for ya response. Can i know where you got CASA from and did u compare with DCMOTO before buying? For that price, how long is the warranty? Hope you can share the sellers contact if from Klang valley. Tq

i got my casa for the electrician in penang.he said he install casa and dc moto but dc moto for warranty is slower than casa.mine only 1 years warranty.my neighbour install a dc moto so i compare casa spec and his dc moto spec.and at last, i pick dc motor

sorry, but you chose Casa or DCmoto?
